Annotated Works Cited Pages

Yes, yes it is.
Folks:

The next step in doing our research papers is completing an annotated works cited page. An annotated works cited is where you list the sources you plan to use and give 1. a brief summary of it and 2. an explanation as to how you'll use this source in your own research.

The annotated works cited will be due 11/6.

We will be meeting in the library Wednesday, October 30th in room 220. This will give you an introduction to FINDING sources. You will need to find 3-5 of them, and at least one must be SCHOLARLY (from the library databases).

Not sure what an annotated works cited page looks like? Below is an example:





See how it has the usual MLA formatted citation, then a brief summary of the source? That's what you'll be creating.













If you need help creating the citations, there are several online websites that can help you generate them, such as:

EasyBib
SonofaCitationMachine
NoodleTools

So below are a few reminders for the next few days:

Wednesday, October 30th -- Meet in library, room 220

Monday, November 4th -- No class. This is your research work day

Wednesday, November 6th -- Your annotated works cited page is due
